Ombre d'Or

First impressions Starts of lime heavy ,leading with the metallic notes making this steel like aroma followed wirh a smooth leather un raveling itself as suede smooth but spicy with the metal 6 hours later Reminds me of masa by lattafa being that Ganymede dna but also the lime acted in a similar style masa drys down where that lemon and mango tones down and dance with the ambers in the base without screaming hey im citrus, smoother amber citrus smell minus the mango that masa has they smelled 100% identical for about an hour lime goes down cedar rises with the incense and amber setting the tone of the fragrance for the rest of its duration At other times it reminds me of detour eco both possibility of containing oud, saffron, cedar, 10:41 Lime spices and suede become the drydown of the fragrance light mineral scent barley present The suede becomes the main star working with the amber and musky lime (toned down lime) Might not be a suede note but one of the woodynotes being CEDAR with the insense and amber making a smokey dry leather suede effect. Just sprayed again (ombre) with masa and amber saffron FA not that similar to see similarities and MASA masa masa is what im getting its masa hyped up 10x that metallic opening is amazing imo without that mango in masa this becomes so metal

This stuff is straight GAS! It makes me think of sitting in a brand new high end sports car. The way the suede/alcantara smells when fresh and new. The smell of race fuel and burnt rubber. I don't know how to explain it other than that. It's definitely my jam though! I haven't put my nose on Crystal Saffron nor Ganymede but from what I have smelled it reminds me of Emir Celestial and Michael Malul Amber+Smoke. It's darker, less leathery and less sweet than Celestial but brighter and fresher due to the lime than amber+smoke. But it's a little bit of both of those to my nose.

Nose Note #942 I don't know about Crystal Saffron, but to me this smells very much like Ganymede. Very metallic, very mineralic. Saffron? Definately, but not like saffron from Oud for Greatness, more like Baccarat Rouge 540 saffron, but not sweet. It is definately more masculine than Ganymede, it's as if it has a masculine freshie base. Great longevity and sillage. Nice performer. Good value for money, if you like Ganymede DNA. To me this is redundant if you have Khanjar or Masa or other high quality Ganymede dupes. 8.5/10, mind that Ganymede has a polarizing DNA

This is a very unusual and deep fragrance. The best way I can describe it right out of the box is 'cold' and 'weirdly musky'. It doesn't have the typical warmth you'd expect from a winter scent; instead, it has this futuristic, sterile depth to it. The ambroxan and saffron combination creates a sharp, almost metallic aura that feels very distant but intriguing. It is definitely a strange scent profile, but it grabs your attention. The sillage is strong . Not a safe blind buy, but highly unique if you want to smell 'icy' and modern

This is really special, I can't imagine it being a crowd pleaser but it's got that niche vibe. I haven't smelled Ganymede but to me it's in between Crystal Saffron and Ra'eed oud by Lattafa. Anotherbadhabit nailed the description of the smell - like a new expensive car or how I'd imagine the future's humanoid robotics factory would smell like. It's got that chrome, gas, spicy floral notes. I really enjoy it but it might be polarizing to others. I bought this blind like most colognes, caution suggested for future buyers.

This has to be one of the most under rated gem that you can find. The price is nothing comparing to the rich smell you'll be getting. When I first smelt it thought it was probably an ultra niche perfume. OH BOY! I was very wrong this smells like money! If you are a CEO or own a business and attend meetings often blind buy this one and trust me you'll be dominating the room!

Guys, this perfume is unique. Initially, when I bought it, it smelled like Raid — like fly spray or bug spray. But after some months of maceration (three months or more), this perfume is fire. It has a metallic, woody kind of dry-down with great performance. You can smell it all day, and you don’t even need that many sprays. Absolute value for money. Guys, please get this!

If this has been on your radar, do yourself a favor and just pull the trigger. You may not instantly love it, but it’s a smell that grows on you. It won’t be long and you will find yourself reaching for it all the time. I could easily make this my signature scent. This will not only get you noticed, but it will also get you remembered.

Ombre d'Or Armaf, what can I say, excellent performance, just like Armaf has accustomed us to. The scent may be a little synthetic, but it improves over time. You will definitely get compliments for this perfume, or at least be noticed. It is worth having, it is not expensive, I will buy it again because it does the job perfectly.

Really enjoying this , definitely not a blind buy though. The smell took me back to Saturday mornings as a child , then realised it was cleaning old vinyl records .. the static.. and then out in dad’s car .. the new leather ! Lasts a good ten hours on my skin to which is unusual as my skin usually drinks up fragrance for fun .

Now THAT's a fragrance to write home about. The saffron and metallic notes along with the ballistic incense note, are very well rounded off with the other ingredients. It's an absolutely beastly fragrance and the longevity is beyond impressive, even in harsh weather. LOVE IT!

No, there’s nothing metallic🔗 about this at all! And it doesn’t give the same vibe as Ganymede. It’s more reminiscent of Lattafa Al Areeq Gold...though a smoother, more refined version. The iris🪻🌸 here is absolute perfection👌🏼✨️

To my nose this is more Crystal Saffron than Ganymede and I love that. It's surprisingly niche smelling and gives off a much more expensive experience than it costs. Great to layer with as well!

I love it. Very nice. Well blended. I get this metallic and woody scent that has some smokiness. Very unique. Leans more masculine. Great for winter and colder weather. Evenings out for sure.

I also own Saffron Elixir. Both great, but this one is more sensual, saffron elixir is colder, serious, sterile. This is luxurios, expensive smelling.

Archetypic metallic scent. Out of this world. I just love this signature perfume. Perfect one for crystal saffron and ganymede fans.

This is nice. Just got a bottle and it is lovely. Reminds me a bit of Oud for greatness. Not a direct clone of it though.

This is sooo good! Warm, spicy, slightly mettalic and not so loud but gets the job done!Well done Afnan!

This is Ganymede with a Twist, Maybe a tad bit limy citrus that i can detect but overall its Ganymede!

It's completely similar to Escalo ALF (dubai brand)
